As expected the YHA hostel was really good, the staff were helpful, cheap cafe for breakfast and bars for the evening, and a huge kitchen so you can cook for yourself. Comfy beds and nice showers, and a rooftop pool!

Expensive, but still one of the cheaper hostels in Sydney, it was cheaper for us to become members on the door.
Room was clean, toilets weren't far away and were clean, kitchen area is big enough for all your food!

It is fine if you need to get to Central Station easily, but if you are going to be staying for any other reason, the YHA on the Rocks is much nicer. This was okay though, just far from touristy things.

There was bass thumping coming through the floor all night. The room had an automatic key card and so did the bathroom, so you couldn't go anywhere without a pass. The kitchen was extremely well done.

I stayed here for a couple of nights in september 2009. Sydney central is quite central and a big YHA, but it still is a nice, quiet and clean place. I would stay there again if I got an opportunity to go back to Sydney.

We arrived late on Tuesday into Sydney airport, I have this weird feeling of coming home. Think it has something to do with arriving back in the same city twice. Can't quite believe its only been 2 months, it feels like I've been away months. Our hostel is easy to find as its near the main station. Slightly on the outskirts of the main city …

14th January A very quick flight from Melbourne to Sydney and a very easy train a whole two stops away delivered me safely to YHA central Sydney. 34 degrees was very welcomed after the weird weather patterns and rain in Melbourne. This week was 'Sydney Festival' week & as part of that there was a 'festival village' set up in Hyde park so I …

Sydney is recognized as a major world city. But I can't imagine any other world cities where it is a super convenient 10 minute train ride to get from the airport to the city center. Upon arrival, I could not believe how easily I found my hostel right outside the train station. Check plus for Sydney. A friend I had met at a hostel in Japan even …
